Honestly, I've been in a few tourneys, and it feels like the real tiebreaker is who bought the judges more pizza. Just kidding! But seriously, focus on winning your matches and the rest will sort itself out.

Tiebreakers, huh? Simple: just win more. ;)

In MTG tournaments, tiebreakers are a big deal if you're neck-and-neck with someone else for standings. First up is Match Win Percentage – basically, the more you win, the better you look. Then, there's Opponent Match Win Percentage, which is like judging how cool you are based on the coolness of your friends; if you've played against tough opponents, you're seen as stronger. Lastly, there's Game Win Percentage, rewarding you for winning more games within your matches. And if you're still tied (how??), it goes down to Opponent Game Win Percentage. So, winning's great, but who you beat and how often can really push you up the ranks!
